Having last year become very mildly interested in Geocaching but never having the time/ability to get involved, I now find myself in a position where I could do more. Physical limitations (and my propensity to attract every biting insect in a 50 mile radius) keep me from doing too much but having just bought the new 2nd edition Complete Idiot's Guide to Geocaching and read the stuff written by the staff, I "discovered" Wherigo and realized that I could create some really great adventures for folks who wanted to 'see Maine'.
I'd bought the Geocaching app for my iPhone 3G and was even more excited until I got to this site and realized that the software for creating this stuff was in ALPHA and now a year old. There was nothing for the iPhone, sadly, either and I'm not about to spend $400 for a separate GPS when it looks like this whole concept is being hung out to dry.
It would certainly be nice to see some reassurance from the 'powers that be' that Wherigo is a viable, active project that just needs a little more time - along with a broad/vague timeline so that I - and others - can either keep salivating or simply move on in life. Just having a couple of recent posts in this thread show there's a modicum of interest but it's frankly depressing to see what little there is.
Thoughts?
